There's not really much to say, so without further a due, here is chapter 5!
Me: Hey Steph, I was just wondering if I could borrow something.
Steph: What might that be?
Me: Oh several things. Your credit card, your car, The Twilight Saga, a cup of sugar. You know the usual.
Steph: Oh sure, I'll go get- wait a second. Haven't we been over this? I own the characters and all ideas pertaining to Twilight. So, no you can't borrow anything.
Me: Dang it.
Zephyr's POV
Sun is what gives everyone the energy to live. Sun is what helps plants complete photosynthesis. Unfortunately, it is one of my family's worst enemies. Even though my mother and I don't sparkle, we have to keep up the façade. If Carlisle pulls out our family to hike, we can't stay at school now can we?
No, we can't.
I was so excited to meet her, but of course the sun had to poke out today! What if some other guy had gotten her attention already? I know that my family and I are the most beautiful, but we weren't there.
What if she doesn't like me?
I just need to stop thinking about this mystery girl. For all I know, she won't even be at Forks high for another year!
"That's not true, Zeph! She's already here!" Edward called up. How long had he been listening to me?
"For the past hour. You're really funny when you're worried." His voice sounded closer. I looked up and saw him standing in the door way.
I could see where I got my messy bronze colored hair from. The only differences between Edward and I are that my eyes are black, my shoulders are more broad, and my skin is a shade darker. Of course, I looked like my father, but I sure do look like Edward.
"You sure do, kid. Luckily, you didn't get too much of your Pop's looks," he said with a wink and a crooked smile.
I gave him my wide grin, and pulled up my shield. Right after I did this, Dad walked up the stairs and into my room.
"You're dead, Cullen!" Dad threatened. I only chuckled.
Right as Dad lunged for Edward, he moved out of the way. Dad hit the doorway head on. Ouch.
With a smirk, Edward picked up my dad in a friendly way. Dad just glared, and with a crunch, put his nose back in place.
"No hard feelings, son," Edward chastised. It's so weird. My dad looks ten years older, but he is Edward's son-in-law. Got to love being immortal.
"Shut up, leech," Dad retorted.
All of a sudden, the front door opened. I guess Carlisle was back from his shift at the hospital.
I ran down to greet him.
"Hey, Carlisle. How was work?" I asked as I took his coat for him. I know he can do it by himself, I just like being helpful.
"It was quite interesting. There was this one girl. She seemed to be your age, and she reminded me so much of Bella as a teenager. Her blood sugar had gotten low, so she passed out," he told me. I'm not dumb, but I did want to know what he meant by blood sugar.
"What's blood sugar, Carlisle? Is it what makes the blood so sweet?" I asked seriously.
Carlisle chuckled at me.
"Not exactly, Zephyr. She's diabetic, so her blood glucose levels have to be monitored. Something about her though made me curious. She knew my name, but I didn't have my name tag on. She said her uncle had told me, but he was as surprised as me. Plus, she knew that I could hear her," he said.
"What did she look like?" I inquired.
"She had grey eyes, but they were blue when she first came in. She was about 110 pounds, and she had mahogany hair much like Bella's. She's Michael's niece, as a matter of fact."
That was her! Edward was right! I can't believe I missed her. I have to go to school tomorrow, even if it's sunny.
"Thanks Carlisle, I just was curious," I told him as I headed to Emmett's room. I had to beat him at about ten games of Guitar Hero so he wouldn't get too cocky.
"Hey Em, want to play Guitar Hero with me?" I asked as I entered his room. He and Rosalie were reading a car magazine, but when he heard Guitar Hero, he jumped up.
This would be fun.
Thirteen victories later, I decided to head to bed. I needed to be rested for my meeting with- crap! I never asked Carlisle her name before he went back to work!
Oh well. At least we can make a proper introduction when we first meet. With that thought, I drifted off into a blissful sleep, filled with dreams of a brown haired beauty.
Beep beep beep! My alarm awoke me angrily at 6:30.
I got ready at my speed so that I could meet with my family on time. Only my mother, father, and I slept, so we were the "slow pokes" of the family.
When I got downstairs at 6:33, my family were all waiting to go on a hunt. We decided to play it safe and hunt once a week. We headed to the river, and we split from there.
Bella and Edward, Jasper and Alice, Carlisle and Esme, Rose and Emmett, then Mom and me. Dad was mainly human, so he didn't go on our hunting trips. Mom and I went to the border to hunt for some larger game and so I could say hi to Johnny and Danny.
I was in my wolf form so that I could talk to them. My fur was bronze, just like my hair. Everyone thought I was beautiful, but to me, I was just being wolfy.
Hey guys. What's up? I asked my friends. I knew they were out, so I just walked to the border line.
Hey Zephyr! We just got to chase some bloodsucker all the way to Canada! A very excited Danny answered.
Yeah, it was awesome! What are you up to, dude? A more sensible Johnny asked me. Ever since he got with his girlfriend, Anna, he's been way mellower. Just then, it clicked. Anna was Johnny's imprint!
So you're dad finally told you? Took you long enough to figure it out. Johnny responded to my unspoken thought.
Yeah, and I think I am going to get my imprint today! I have to go hunting guys, I'll see you later!
Fine. Danny huffed. Poor guy has been a wolf for over three years, but he hasn't found the one yet. I hope he does soon.
I said bye as I trotted towards a herd of elk I smelled. My senses were much more acute when I was in my wolf form. I spotted the largest one, and pounced.
Within seconds, the life had left the buck's eyes. I quickly discarded the deer, and went to get a change of clothes.
Alice, being Alice, was waiting at the front door with a "stylish" outfit. I hardly ever pick out my own outfits. Today was no exception.
The outfit consisted of a green Abercrombie jacket, black skinny jeans, my green and black Osiris, and my "Find the wolf within you" shirt that had a professionally done picture of me courtesy of my mom. She had taken up photography recently, and I was often her object of testing.
"Thanks, Allie," I thanked her as I walked to the bathroom. She was always helpful, and her power was too.
"You're welcome, wolf boy," she responded as she walked off to her brand new Porsche. She had a BMW before, but she liked the way a 911 runs, so she got another one.
I quickly changed, brushed my teeth, and ran out to my Ducati. It was a sleek black, and its engine purred like a cat that'd gotten the cream. The leather interior had just been re-upholstered, so it smelled brand new all over again.
My family was already gone, so I had to speed to catch up.
Or maybe, I just wanted to speed.
The second I pulled into the parking lot, I noticed a truck that was the brightest green I had ever seen on a car. I'd never seen it before; I would have remembered if I had.
Who would be that ostentatious?
It must be her. I liked her already.
I met up with my family, and immediately listened for the thoughts of her.
Oh my God! Zephyr's back! I hope he missed me~ Sara Newton. Edward and I both chuckled. I loved having something in common with him.
I listened for more thoughts, but I was getting a headache trying to sift through everyone's annoying thoughts. I decided to just play it cool.
I said goodbye to my family as I walked to into school.
Sorry for just leaving it like that! I didn't want them to meet just yet, though. Maybe they won't meet for several more chapters. I could be evil like that, you know. It all depends on what you, the people, want. Thanks for reading so far!
